Retired from a retail business. Have no interest in working at boring monotaneous tasks nowadays. Feel the need for expression with wood but have not done much of it before 2006. Took shop in H/S and then woodworking in I/A in college. I was exposed to some top notch equipment and developed a sincere appreciation for quality tools which translated into a desire to break the bank when browsing tool catalogs...you know that story if you are on this web site. I make OOAK stuff mostly and occasionally build something out a magazine blue print. I have found it rewarding to build stuff for family birthdays, weddings, graduation, Christmas and so on. It even saves a few bucks if I have everything in stock that I need?

Love the chance to bat ideas and field a few questions about anything.
